Those who read their newspapers and carelessly throw them aside, overlook the fact that they are not doing all for their own town that they can. If those news- papers instead of being destroyed were placed in wrappers and mailed from time to time to friends and relatives at a' distance, the good that could be accomplished would soon-be reflected in the city's growth. Chambers of Commerce are frequently blamed for not getting out more boost litera- ture to be sent abroad. Those who raise these complaints could do a great deal them- selves by sending out the literature that comes into their own hands in the form of their local newspaper. Rest assured there is no business individual in a town more in- terested in the growth of his community than is the editor or publisher, for as the town grows he grows. EDITORIAL NOTES Who remembers - when farmers said, "Help yourselves to the walnuts, boys?" present practically fyom the begin- ning. . As you know, most ailments are accompanied by a rise in temperature, fever as it is called, because this heat is needed to fight the invader, This heat must be removed frém the body and this is done by the blood carry- ing 'it to the surface of the body, to the skin, where it is 'removed in the form of perspiration. Naturally the blood needs a lot of water in 'order to remove this heat, and takes it from, every part of the body, . And as most of thé waste matter in intestine is made up of water, there- fore it takes most of this, leaving this waste in a dry hard condition. . This in turn makes it hard for the intestinal muscles to move it along, and hence there is constipation. You can readily see therefore that more water is needed in the sys- tem and these feverish individuals want and need plenty of water. Your physician will likely prescribe Epson salts for these conditions be- cause the salts are of such compo- sition 'that the systeni cannot éxtract the water from them, and they thus make the waste matter more fluid, so that it can be expelled down the intestine and out of the body by the muscular action of the . intestinal walls, Further, Epsom salts has the power to draw liquids from the blood, and thus in addition to supplying mois- ture to the waste matter, made dry by the fever, it takes some: of the Institutes engaged delegat convention of the United Farmers of Ontario at their-session today.

Think of the insects on it. ernment to remove the luxury tax of 50 cents a gallon on native wines. While the cabinet has not made formal announcement 'of the removal"of the impost, members of the government state that this is forthcom- ing, and that the tax will be removed, retro- active to November 1, the-beginning of th Provincial fiscal year. ; . At the same time, the government is in- creasing the gasoline tax of three-cents per gallon to a new level of five cents, for pur- poses of increased revenue, Placed side by side, the proposals of the Ontario cabinet seem somewhat contradict- ory. On the one hand they are increasing the cost to the consumer of a fuel that has become absolutely necessary in the life of today, and that can be termed a luxury only in a very limited sense. On the other hand, they are removing altogether a "luxury tax," on a commodity that is, at best, a lux- ury; that is in no sense necessary ;*and that is, in the minds of many people, even injur- fous. The luxury tax on domestic wines nets the government $300,000 per year. Where will this money come from--the users of gasoline? : poisonous matter that is causing the fever, out of the blood. So that the idea of drinking plenty of water daily is based upon good sense, It will help to prevent con- stipation, I have spoken before about how the diluting of the hlood with plenty of water enabled the kidneys to sep- arate the poisons from the blood more readily. Therefore most of us, teven when well, would be wise to drink one or two glasses of water be- tween meals, in addition to that tak- en at mealtime. (Registered in accordance with the Copyright Act.)

One thousand acres of timber are being replanted annually to re- e the timber ruthlessly destroyed st years. nce, in Western Australia, a for- est was a timber mine to be worked over and neglected. Someone, for- tunately, sounded a warning, and in 1918 a Forest Act, governing con- trol, protection and regeneration, was placed on the Statute Book. By 1933 all land with timber on it that forms part of an carly concession will have reverted to the Crown. Prime Jarrah, karri, tuart and tingle areas have nearly all been dedicated as state forests, and from a small policing and revenue-collecting or- izati the Forests Department ae taken its place as one of the most important of all official branch- es. It has undertaken a modest rc- séarch program, annually distributing 65,000 trees at cost price to farmers and local authoritics, and each year inspects 10,000,000 cubic feet of tim- ber for local railways and overseas rs. And despite a vigorous pro- granr of reforestration and limitation of output from prime forests the in- crease in revenue diring these 19 years has more than kept pace with expenditure. Western Australia foresters look to the next decade as the most criti- cal in the history of the state's for- ests. But they have made fine prep- arations for the trial. Since 1921, 700,000 acres of forests have been brought under intensive management, requiring the prepara- tion of 36 working plans, Jarrah is, of course, the principal timber of the state, and an enormous amount of work has been done in the 2,330, 000 acres it covers. Regeneration op- erations are proceeding at 30 cen- tres, and during the past five years 24,000 acres of this timber have been treated according to plan. Karri, tuart and sandalwood are 0 re- ceiving serious attepfion, and\ there are prospects that the serious) defi- ciency of older classes of timber on country cut over. for half a century will in time be made up. Officials, however, admit that the immature timber now developing will not meet the need for the balance of a 90-year rotation, and they pro- pose tofreduce output for the im- mediate future. They argue, wisely, that it is better to produce a few thousand feet less each year than winden the gap between the ex- haustion of virgin forests and the first yield from regenerated areas. PRESBYTERIAN MODERA- TOR CONVALESCING IN VANCOUVER Toronto, Dec. 7--Rev. John Buch- anan, D.D., Moderator of the Pres- byterian Church in Canada, is con- valescing from a severe illness in a Vancouver Hospital. Dr. Buchanan has been in the West for a couple of months, making official visits to the churches in that part of Can- ada. About 2 week ago he became ill with infection of the throat. He is.now on the way to recovery and will be home, it is - expected, for Christmas. SETTLERS' FARE PLACED AT $50 Announcement of Ocean Passage Compares With Old Rate of $94 Ottawa, Dec. 7.--A $50 rate for all British migrants to Canada from the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland has been agreed upon be- tween the British Government and the steamship companies, according to a statement issued by Hon. Rob- ert Forke, Minister of Imnrigra- tion. The new rate does mot af- fect the $10 rate under. the Empire settlement scheme, which continues in force. The agreement rounds off the several conferences held in recent weeks fin London, which were attended by W. J. Egan, De- puty Minister of Immigration. It becomes effective on January 1, 1929. : The difference between the $50 and the old rate of $94 approxi- mately will be absorbed by the -| British Government and the steam- ship lines on an agreed basis.
